LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS

Stray Cat proudly concludes season 23 with a distinctly Stray Cat approach to a beloved favorite - the camp-tastic sci-fi classic musical LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS. This production promises even more of the humor you’re used to - just with a decidedly more adult edge. This production will also lean into the ‘horror’ and hopefully land darker than past revivals - a ghoulish, yet undeniably hilarious - nightmarish descent into violence and the monstrous hunger for validation.Some monsters are born. Others are just waiting to bloom.The full press release is below.Please let me know if you need anything additional.FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASELITTLE SHOP OF HORRORSbook and lyrics by Howard Ashmanmusic by Alan Menkindirected by Ron Maymusical direction by Mark 4manchoreographed by Stephen HohendorfTempe Center for the Arts Studio TheatreMay 2 - 17, 2025Feed me, Stray Cat!The characters are the same. The songs are the same. But the show won’t be. We have watched this long-time favorite on local stages for decades and accrued a whole rolodex of thoughts in the vein of, “…what would happen if we did a production Stray Cat style?” Welp. Time to find out! We’re about to do everything we can to put the ‘horrors’ back into the little shop y’all know and love.Please be aware the show contains adult language and situations and comic depictions of over-the-top gore.
